The Foundation provides funding only to 501(c) (3) tax-exempt nonprofit organizations and public agencies in communities where Lowe’s operates stores and distribution centers.

Lowe's Charitable and Educational Foundation requires that all applicants take an eligibility test.

Organizations that pass will be considered, but not guaranteed a grant. LCEF receives far more requests than it can accommodate. Many times, requests that pass the eligibility test and fall within the stated
guidelines are not approved.

• Grants generally range from $5,000 to $25,000. Larger amount requests will be considered, but are seldom awarded.

• The Foundation will reserve the right to consider an organization's grant application only once per calendar year.
